Annotate Pipes

Step 1:

Select pipes to be tagged.

Make a selection of pipes from your model.

To tag vertical pipe with Up or Dn tags, use the System Walker for selection. The direction of the vertical pipes will be determined by the flow direction from the 1st pipe selected for the System Walker.

Step 2:

Choose Tag Pipes from the HydraCAD ribbon, or Annotate Cut Lengths from the  HydraLIST ribbon.

Pipe Tag Type

Use Center/Center Length Tags will add pipe tags with calculated length extended to the insertion point (center) if the fittings attached to the ends of the pipe.

Selection Method

User Selection: 

Vertical pipes in the selection will have pipe diameter x length tag added.

No direction will be indicated.

System Walker Selection: 

Vertical pipes in the selection will have  (Up or Dn) pipe diameter x length tag added.

The direction of the vertical pipes will be determined by the flow direction from the 1st pipe selected for the System Walker.

Options

Reset Length Adjustment (Take Out) when checked

If the Length-Cut_Length (Hydratec) property value is manually changed, the Length-Adjustment (Hydratec) property will be recalculated from the Length-Center_Center (Hydratec) minus the Length-Cut_Length (Hydratec) value when the pipe is redimensioned.

Reset Cut Lengths when checked

If the actual model pipe has been lengthened or shortened, the Length-Cut_Length (Hydratec)

Property will be recalculated from the new Length-Center_Center (Hydratec) minus the existing Length-Adjustment (Hydratec) value when the pipe is redimensioned.

If the Length-Adjustment (Hydratec) property value is manually changed, the Length-Cut_Length (Hydratec) property will be recalculated from the Length-Center_Center (Hydratec) minus the Length-Adjustment (Hydratec) value when the pipe is redimensioned.

Tag Drops Only 

Only pipes determined to be drops will be tagged.

Include Drops with Selection

All pipes, including drops, selected will be tagged.
